Frankly, I don't condone any behaviour and acts of chauvanism based on race, culture, religion, or sex orientation. However, I completely dispute the tendency of treating gay and lisbain community as a community that can only be defined based on sex, as if everything that the lisbian or gay is about sex. Maybe I might be short sighted in this regard. Is there nothing that can serve the purpose without sexuality? I was also partly disappointed when I heard that the minister walked out of the exhibition. I was keen to see the art work of Lesbian community as a heritage practitioner, I thought of the creativity that they can showcase as I know some of them as being creative but sexuality to me is not creativity. I still wait with enthusium to see the creativity of this community. Come on guyz, where is your visionary creativity? If I offended anyone in this piece of paper, I'll apologise in advance.
